Trinity Term 2010

1st Week

Thursday 29 April, 8pm

St John's Video Room

The Day of the Daleks

Yet another UNIT-supervised peace conference comes under strange & mysterious attack. isn't it lucky that the Third Doctor is stuck working for them in this time period (whenever it's meant to be)? I shudder to think what it would have been like if they'd had to go it alone...

2nd Week

Thursday 6 May, 8pm

St John's Video Room

Ice Warriors

After everyone enjoyed the Second Doctor serial The Invasion so much last term, we've decided to watch another incomplete story (with cartoon reconstructions of the missing episodes). The companions this time are Jamie (yes, the touchy-feely chap with the kilt again) and Victoria (the imaginatively-named Victorian). In this story, a Martian warrior is discovered frozen in an Earth glacier.

3rd Week

Thursday 13 May, 8pm

St John's Video Room

The Keeper of Traken

We don't often get to see Tom Baker's Doctor interacting with Anthony Ainley's Master, but every time that we do is an absolute treat. In this serial, the utopian Traken Union is threatened by a strange statue..

This story also sees us meet new companion Nyssa, whose costumes I believe to still be visible from time to time in Oxford's goth clubs. Unfairly-maligned companion Adric, the pre-pubescent maths genius, also features.

4th Week

Thursday 20 May, 8pm

St John's Video Room

The Aztecs

If you think that the Tenth Doctor's interactions with Rose are out-of-character for the asexual Doctor, then this First Doctor episode will prove you very wrong. While Barbara is off becoming an Aztec goddess and trying to change history, the Doctor gets engaged to an Aztec woman...

5th Week

Thursday 27 May, 8pm

St John's North Quad Lecture Room

The Geek Quiz

In the now-legendary Geek Quiz, members of Oxford's geekiest societies get together in order to battle it out for the crown of "team who won that term". Start writing your rounds now!

6th Week

Thursday 3 June, 8pm

St John's Video Room

Battlefield

The Seventh Doctor is Merlin. Does this episode need any further promotion? Very well; Ace has a new girlfriend, we get Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart out of retirement, and meet the new Brigadier - played magnificently by Angela Bruce of Press Gang and that gender-swap episode of Red Dwarf.

7th Week

Thursday 10 June, 8pm

Mongolian Wok, Hythe Bridge Street

DocSoc Meal

This term, we continue our quest to eat every type of cuisine available in Oxford with a trip to the Mongolian Wok which, it turns out, is just down past the end of George Steet. You'll need to be a member of the society, and to book in advance, in order to attend this meeting.

8th Week

Thursday 17 June, 8pm

St John's Video Room

Timelash

Once more, Eighth Week is Eighties Week! This term, our trip through the worst excesses of the Colin Baker era brings us to Timelash. Here we have the usual themes of aliens perving over Peri and the Sixth Doctor being overly pompous and terribly dressed; to this heady mix we add Paul Darrow camping things up even more than he used to as Kerr Avon in Blake's 7, and cutting-edge special effects made entirely of tinsel.
